Star Health Supports Irdai Reforms, Reports Strong Q2 Profit Performance
Star Health welcomed the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India's (Irdai) proposed distribution reforms but requested that mandated products like motor third-party insurance and government health schemes be excluded from expense cap calculations. The company reported a strong Q2 FY27 performance, with net profit rising to around Rs 260 crore and an underwriting profit of Rs 99 crore. Nomura maintained a 'Buy' rating on Star Health shares, noting better-than-expected core profitability but highlighted the need for clarity on meeting new expense limits.
